Leading the race to becoming the fastest growing town in the South East, Ashford in Kent is an exciting opportunity for anyone looking for all the splendour of Kent while still being a few stops from central London. Ashford combines the scenic nature of the Kent countryside with an unbeatable transport system in and out of the London buzz, so if you simply can’t decide which pace of life you prefer, not to worry! Ashford has you covered on all fronts.
Village Life for the London Commuter
While London is less than a 40 minute ride on the HS1 Connection, Ashford also offers village life and all its charm to feed the hungriest of souls here in the South East. A home in Ashvine park isocated in the heart of Canterbury in Kent, this beautiful development is closely situated to everything needed for a modern lifestyle, including Canterbury East and Canterbury West train stations, Whitefriars shopping centre and a variety of bars, pubs and restaurants nearby. Both Canterbury train stations provide excellent links into central London, and seaside towns Whitstable and Herne Bay are just a short drive away. Ashford is so much more than simply a smart move for the commuter. Think farmers’ markets, views of rolling meadows and cosy country pubs and you’ll find yourself far removed from the capital in the wonderfully picturesque villages of Ashford.

If it isn’t the high ranking schools, eclectic collection of parks and nearly 50 acres of open space across the town that have you considering Ashford as a home for your little ones, it’s the unmissable offer of weekend family time that Ashford has up its sleeve.

With a trendy town centre, in keeping with the Jacobean architecture - showcasing the likes of Calvin Klein, Ralph Lauren and Hugo Boss - spots of shopping and a plethora of eatings offer tempting treats on the Ashford High street.
